It's a good idea to put food and water close, so they can eat without the hen needing to come off the nest yet. That may help her stay on the nest longer, which could help any chicks that are almost ready to hatch.
I bought a broody mama and she has 7 eggs!

I did move her food and water closer, she is still sitting religiously. Another egg has pipped!

I'll try to get close up individual pics here in a bit!
Correction: The TWO darkest chicks seem to have crests.
